Summary
Classic text on the Solar Return - a chart used annually by astrologers for hundreds of years to forecast the year ahead and review events from the past. Transcript of seminar given at Liz Greene's CPA.
Description
Solar returns have been used by astrologers since Greco-Roman times to define the patterns and trends of each forthcoming years. Sadly underrated and often interpreted simplistically in modern astrology, they have not yet found their rightful place in a psychological approach to astrological symbolism. This book, a transcript of a seminar given for the Centre for Psychological Astrology (CPA), brings a fresh yet profound approach to solar returns, rooted firmly in astrological tradition, yet enriched with the sophistication of modern astrological and psychological perspectives. Both eminently practical yet philosophically far-reaching and thought-provoking, it will be a revelation to all astrological students and practitioners.
In addition to the lively format of the seminar transcript, there is an appendix including further examples of the application of solar returns to actual lives. There is little current literature on solar returns satisfactory to those seeking greater depth and accessibility from this ancient yet perennially useful approach to interpreting the cycles of individual unfoldment. This book fills a long-neglected gap, and is essential reading for any astrological student concerned with understanding the meaning as well as the manifestations of the different stages of the human journey.
Critic Reviews
"A classic in astrological literature since its original publication in 2005, Cycles of Light brings the lens of depth psychology to illuminate one of the oldest astrological techniques and reveal its power as a centrepiece of astrological practice. Drawn from live teaching at the Centre for Psychological Astrology, the material is both practical and inspirational, weaving together a thorough understanding of method and detail with deep insight into human psychology. It is enriched by skilful and perceptive delineation of numerous solar return charts to show the range and potentials of this ancient technique.
As ever, Lynn Bell is here a masterly and assured voice. Cycles of Light represents the distilled wisdom of a lifetime practising and teaching astrology; it is essential reading for any student of astrology but just as equally valuable for experienced practitioners working with clients."
-Carole Taylor, Faculty of Astrological Studies
